<a name="Directives-to-control-generation-of-MIPS-ASE-instructions"></a>
<h4 class="subsection">9.27.12 Directives to control generation of MIPS ASE instructions</h4>

<a name="index-MIPS-MIPS_002d3D-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-mips3d"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nomips3d"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set mips3d</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the MIPS-3D Application Specific Extension from that point on
in the assembly.  The <code>.set nomips3d</code> directive prevents MIPS-3D
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-SmartMIPS-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-smartmips"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nosmartmips"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set smartmips</code> makes the assembler accept
instructions from the SmartMIPS Application Specific Extension to the
MIPS32 ISA from that point on in the assembly.  The
<code>.set nosmartmips</code> directive prevents SmartMIPS instructions from
being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-MDMX-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-mdmx"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nomdmx"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set mdmx</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the MDMX Application Specific Extension from that point on
in the assembly.  The <code>.set nomdmx</code> directive prevents MDMX
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-DSP-Release-1-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-dsp"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nodsp"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set dsp</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the DSP Release 1 Application Specific Extension from that point
on in the assembly.  The <code>.set nodsp</code> directive prevents DSP
Release 1 instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-DSP-Release-2-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-dspr2"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nodspr2"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set dspr2</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the DSP Release 2 Application Specific Extension from that point
on in the assembly.  This directive implies <code>.set dsp</code>.  The
<code>.set nodspr2</code> directive prevents DSP Release 2 instructions from
being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-DSP-Release-3-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-dspr3"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nodspr3"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set dspr3</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the DSP Release 3 Application Specific Extension from that point
on in the assembly.  This directive implies <code>.set dsp</code> and
<code>.set dspr2</code>.  The <code>.set nodspr3</code> directive prevents DSP
Release 3 instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-MT-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-mt"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nomt"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set mt</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the MT Application Specific Extension from that point on
in the assembly.  The <code>.set nomt</code> directive prevents MT
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-MCU-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-mcu"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nomcu"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set mcu</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the MCU Application Specific Extension from that point on
in the assembly.  The <code>.set nomcu</code> directive prevents MCU
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-SIMD-Architecture-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-msa"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-nomsa"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set msa</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the MIPS SIMD Architecture Extension from that point on
in the assembly.  The <code>.set nomsa</code> directive prevents MSA
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-Virtualization-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-virt"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-novirt"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set virt</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the Virtualization Application Specific Extension from that point
on in the assembly.  The <code>.set novirt</code> directive prevents Virtualization
instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<a name="index-MIPS-eXtended-Physical-Address-_0028XPA_0029-instruction-generation-override"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-xpa"></a>
<a name="index-_002eset-noxpa"></a>
<p>The directive <code>.set xpa</code> makes the assembler accept instructions
from the XPA Extension from that point on in the assembly.  The 
<code>.set noxpa</code> directive prevents XPA instructions from being accepted.
</p>
<p>Traditional MIPS assemblers do not support these directives.
